My candle mission

[alisonbestford]

Well, I set off on our trip with the intention of buying Crocs and Yankee Candles :thumbsup2

A couple of days into the holiday we went to Florida Mall and I bought both - pretty good going for me as I dislike shopping and we were in and out of the mall in just over an hour....... :rolleyes:

And then.....I discovered 'Patriot Candles' in Walgreens :sunny:

These are yummy too, and a third of the price of the Yankee Candle jars ($5.99 each or two for $10 for the medium size, $7.99 each or three for $20 for the large) :yay:

I bought three of the stripey, maple syrup/pecan/pumpkin type ones (all different) and they burn for hours.
We had one in the villa and lit it most days throughout our 3 week stay.
Only problem now is I can't find a UK supplier.......... :sad2:

Oh well, I'll make sure to enjoy the ones we have :sunny:

I love Yankee Candles but have never heard of Patriot Candles. Are they as strong as Yankee?

:wizard:

[alisonbestford]

I, personally, find them to be as strong :thumbsup2

If you look on E-Bay, or the Walgreens website you can see some - but only for US delivery...... :sad2:
